Toote Taare

टूटे तारे

बच्चे मन के  सच्चे सारे जग की आँख के तारे,
ये वो नन्हे फूल हैं, जो भगवान् को लगते प्यारे...

छोटे बच्चे और बच्चियां,
नन्हे फूल, नन्ही कलियाँ,
जैसे जुगनू औ तितलियाँ,
मारे ख़ुशी से किलकारियां।

इनकी शरारत भरे नज़ारे,
इनके नटखट नादाँ इशारे,
मासूमियत के पुतले सारे,
ज़मीन पर फिरते सितारे।

बाग़ में आये शिकारी,
वो ज़ुल्मी थे बड़े भारी,
कलियाँ तोड़ी ढेर सारी,
फूल खा गए अत्याचारी।

तितली हुयीं घायल,
जुगनू हुए पागल,
तारक हुए ओझल,
धरा रक्तिम धूमल।

उजड गया चमन,
धुंधला गया गगन, 
लुट गया बचपन,
मिट गया बचपन।

ये वो नन्हे फूल थे, जो भगवान् को हो गए प्यारे,
ये वो  जगमग जुगनू थे, जो बुझ गए जैसे टूटे तारे।

Talaash - My Version of the Story

Talaash - My Version of the Story


This post has been removed by me.
 
After Delhi Tragedy, I have found a new respect for this movie, especially for the line 'ek ladki ke gayab ho jane se kise fark padta hai, waise bhi, jo hai hi nahin, wo gayab kaise ho sakta hai'.
Afterall, girls are considered non-existent in our society.

I am waiting for 'Nirbhaya' to return as Kareena does in this movie.

Z for Zebra Crossings

Z for ...



Zebra Crossings

The vehicle of a person's life,
Runs carelessly on highway of fun,
Till the worldly zebra crossings,
Force it push hard on brakes.

The zebra crossing of high school,
Then of job, followed by marriage,
Well that has a huge signal also,
Then of kids and finally of age.


Y for Yardstick

Y for ...

Yardstick

What I find acceptable
You might find wrong,
Your perfect circle,
Might look to me oblong.

People are many,
Their thoughts don't mingle,
Why is it, even then many,
Measure all by a yardstick single?
